One of the largest public transit investments in Indiana history…
John,
Did you hear? The South Shore Line Double Track Project is 100% complete. 🚃
From South Bend to Chicago and beyond, Northwest Indiana is better connected than ever. With 18 new miles of track, 14 additional weekday trains, 1,400 new parking spaces, and numerous other infrastructure upgrades, the South Shore Line is safer, faster, and more convenient for Hoosiers.
And John, the whole project was on time and under budget — now that’s what we call Next Level!
“One hundred years later, this Double Track Project will continue to transform Northwest Indiana for generations to come. This game-changing project is yet another example of how the State of Indiana continues to make targeted investments that attract talent and commercial investment that in turn helps our communities take it to their next level.” - Governor Holcomb
This is one of the largest investments in public transit in Indiana history — and it’s worth it.
Between this project and the West Lake Expansion, we’re anticipating $2.7 billion in new private investment in Northwest Indiana, resulting in more than 6,000 new jobs and $5 billion in economic impact by 2048.
